Curious what level of thinking you have been using as well. Found that lowering it actually gets me better results.

I always remembered this anecdote. Was he a fan of retyping books? Or writing long hand?

For the sake of argument if you build on AWS is that any more of a solid foundation? You're beholden to Amazon, unless you have the bandwidth to be able to DR immediately to another provider.

Thanks, I saw that, but I never can make heads or tails of just MP. Feel like some phones have much lower MP but the quality of the photo is much higher.

It does seem like a great deal either way though!

This is looking great, hope the camera can at least produce decent photos. So many other phones with a QEWRTY keyboard just have awful cameras.

The Razr 2024/25 + the clicks keyboard is probably the "best" so far. Although I just got a Zinwa Q25. Amazing how good that formfactor feels after having candy bars this long.

Old school datahand user here, are you using the trackball version of The Svalboard? How does it work as a mouse replacement?

I Velcro a touch pad on the middle of my kinesis advantage.

They made the Form keyboard but not sure the they haven't done the same for the ergo design.

It's a no brainer.

Yeah, it's a fun interactive book.

As any parent is aware a toddler doesn't need training to use a screen. If anything it shows just how intuitive these UI/UX have become.

Have you looked into Kinesis Advantage?

If you're a fan of the free market and want to see these books continue to be available go ahead and contact the rights owners and offer to purchase them.

The lock-down has never been about saving lives. It's about preventing the chaos that would occur if we did nothing and let the health care system crash.

People in charge get this, sure saving lives is nice, but it's about maintaining the order of things.

You really think if this went out of control people would not pull a gun in a hospital to get their relative help? Or groups of people would not be targeted, even more than they are now, as scapegoats?

Even now it's acknowledged that many more are going to get it, many more will die, but at least things will not spiral out of control and we will be able to manage the hospitalization rates.

Not the parent, but I've looked into this and here's my take.

1. Yes RDP 2. The cost can vary obviously, but let's take a lower-end 4vcore 16GB Windows VM (B4MS) - $29.12 (160 hours per month of usage) 3. 512GB of SSD storage - $38.40 a month

It's not a bad setup if you need flexibility to scale up your VM.

I had not known about gumroad and took a look. Would you ever introduce more of a product browsing store front experience?

I see all these great categories in the search drop-down, but no way to just take a peak into what was available.

Great read and glad you are enjoying your journey.

Most likely due to the same troll farms that paint the narrative that SpaceX wastes tax payer money.

Now who would not want a new private American company to succeed in revitalizing the industry and increasing competition. Hmm, I can think of a few.

It used to be "NASA is a bloated waste of tax payer money let private Enterprise in."

And now the same people who said that, have been convinced that private industry is stealing.

Along this topic, if we are spending so much on these infants why is our rate higher than other first world countries?

Finland which is number one, "used the least resources and attained average results, making Finland the most efficient public sector health service producer according to the study's authors"

Granted it's way better than many other countries, but still we shouldn't be so off.

In the article they talk about many factors that a mechanical sorter will have no ability to account for, color, prickliness, curvature.

Thanks for being a donor, much appreciated by those who were given a new life and their families.

Ugh you're right. It seems they romanticized it in their own heads as well. And in the end they're just humans.

The dad wrote a post about it all : http://janifoundation.org/blog/

Wish them all the best either way, it cannot be an easy journey.

I find it amazing at the untold strength in parents like these. Just ordinary folks who somehow find a way to keep on trying and pushing and doing their best when faced with unimaginable challenges.

They fall and get up and keep going.

Makes so many other problems many of us have to face really seem more like "problems".

I've been in and out of this hobby over the last 20+ years.

The latest generation of technology that started ~5 years ago is simply amazing when compared to what we used to have.

Think home automation scaled down to a fish tank.

Remote monitoring and control, email/text alerts based on parameters, evaporation auto-top-offs, and LED lighting at a fraction of the cost of old metal halide or VHO fluorescent.

Plus the level of scientific knowledge and accurate affordable test kits now available to hobbyists really makes a huge difference.

I think like any system once you learn all the shortcuts available and use them on a daily basis trying other setups never seem quite as good.

Curious how old you are now (guessing 26).

Almost unrelated but the documentary Jiro Dreams of Sushi is a good follow-up for inspiration.

Just piling on the congrats although I'm sure passionately working on something for 2 weeks straight is reward in of itself.

Like Android had Google users, Steam has a user base already.

I think that will help get people onboard as well. Everything is already right there for you, your friend list, your games, your awards, your wallet.

Getting a box running SteamOS is just another piece of the puzzle for Steam users invested in the ecosystem.

What extensions are you using with Visual Studio? Found vanilla to be really stable, but certain extensions result in some random crashes. But not terribly often.

I think HN people are looking for a profitable business solution for those not technically inclined to know but want to be able email anonymously.

I find it interesting that his twitter icon is Andy Kaufman. An artistic troll if there ever was one.

As well as the convergence of tablets/laptops/PC/touch screens.

I gave my folks a touchscreen all-in-one PC and it's surprising how much you will touch the screen once it's available.

Yup, tweaks to what they're calling the "Power user menu" Start+x and Display Scaling and of course now you can boot right to the desktop.
